What two numbers multiply to 89 and add up to 90?

Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to 89 and add up to 90?"

The answer to your question is:

1 and 89

Below we illustrate and prove that 1 and 89 multiply to 89 and add up to 90:

1 × 89 = 89
1 + 89 = 90

Are you asking because you are trying to figure out how to factor the following quadratic equation?

x² + 90x + 89 = 0

If so, the solution to factor the quadratic equation above is:

(x + 1 ) (x + 89)

To summarize, since 1 and 89 multiply to 89 and add up 90, you know that the following is true:

x² + 90x + 89 = (x + 1 ) (x + 89)
